It’s almost ready now. From January 1, 2035, car manufacturers will be strictly prohibited from selling new thermal cars in Europe. A measure voted for by the European Commission and then the Parliament a few weeks ago when the main authorities decided to cut by 100% polluting emissions from the automobile industry. A measure that is also controversial and far from unanimous, although many motorists are not ready to go electric at all. And we know that such motorization is not necessarily good for the environment.

The eastern district of Saint-Rambert on the street@A7Traffic from July 18 will offer 2 electric charging stations for refrigerators. It is an economical, ecological and quiet alternative to noisy and polluting diesel generators. https://t.co/YF2YFVSF5Q

Germany vs

A few days ago, Italy announced that it opposes this new whim of the European Union, saying that it threatens jobs in particular. Today, it is the turn of another neighboring country to rebel, saying that it is against this measure. This is Germany, which has not yet expressed itself on this matter. Then the country threatens to block the vote, which should end once and for all the entry into force of this hotly contested decision. This should happen in a few days. next March 7. But what is the reason for this desire?

We are talking about synthetic fuel

If Germany is not happy, it is because the European Union simply decided not to integrate synthetic fuel in exceptions to this prohibition. However, the country has invested heavily in the development of this solution, so this change in strategy is difficult to accept. We know that Porsche has been working on this for years, although this alternative is much cleaner than traditional petrol or diesel.
